Good evening!

raggedyandy3478
how ya doin penguin?
12:08 am
Penguin
Hi Raggedy,
I'm a little hectic this week. I'm on jury duty and in the midst of a civil case. We get closing arguments tomorrow morning and probably begin deliberations in the afternoon. (Three days of boring testimony so far).
12:09 am
raggedyandy3478
wow, thats crazy
12:10 am
Penguin
Well, that means that I will have done my civic duty in this regard for a while. I won't receive another summons for at least four years.
12:10 am
raggedyandy3478
nice, do you know if thats still the case if you 'exempted' out of your summons?
12:11 am
Penguin
Sorry ... what do you mean 'exempted'?
12:12 am
raggedyandy3478
i got a jury summons a few months ago, called the courthouse and basically said 'im a college kid' they responded w/ 'then you don't have to come, thanks, bye'
12:14 am
Penguin
Ah. I don't know how that works in Georgia. Every state has its own rules. My original summons was for me to serve in April. I told them that it was the two weeks before the AP Exam and that no one could substitute for me without hurting the kids. They postponed my service until this week and next. As it happens, I was selected for the first trial of the week.
12:16 am
raggedyandy3478
interesting, i dont think GA does that, they would just let you go and not come back til your next jury summons....after sudoku ill have to look into how often jury summons come in down here
12:17 am
Penguin
Last time I received the jury summons was 1997. Then I was told that it would be at least two years before I was called upon again. It has been a long two years. 8-)
12:18 am
raggedyandy3478
haha, nice
12:19 am
Penguin
The frustrating part at the moment is that I am not allowed to talk about anything with anyone. After the trial is over, then I can express how I think each attorney is an idiot (well, one more than the other).
12:20 am
lawfully
that kind of expresses it, isn't it?
12:21 am
raggedyandy3478
my frustration right now is not being able to figure out this sudoku
12:21 am
lawfully
I thought you solved it.
12:21 am
lawfully
it's easy. I mean, for a hard one
12:21 am
lawfully
I'm done minutes ago
12:21 am
raggedyandy3478
nope, not yet, maybe im just talking too much
12:22 am
Penguin
Hi lawfully,
No, the reasons that each is an idiot are pretty funny. It will have to wait for a day or three. For now I'll mention generally that each attorney has a large area of ignorance, one regarding science and the other English.
12:22 am
lawfully
That sums up very nice the situation, hehe
12:22 am
Penguin
Sorry about that Raggedy. I, too, am guilty of the too much chatter this evening.
12:23 am
raggedyandy3478
dont be penguin, i am just as guilty
12:24 am
lawfully
ragged, you're generally one score above me. same this time, so I thought you also have finished it.
12:24 am
raggedyandy3478
isnt that updated only everyday, as opposed to live
12:25 am
lawfully
guess so... as you're not finished but still one score above
12:26 am
lawfully
anyway, it's easy and straigntforward, so if you keep focusing it, you'll have plenty time to chat minutes later... hehe
12:26 am
raggedyandy3478
i think im nearing the end right now
12:27 am
Penguin
Easy for you to say ... but, I'm usually slow about any sudoku
12:27 am
raggedyandy3478
yup, done
12:27 am
lawfully
just scan it across table several times and it's done
12:28 am
raggedyandy3478
law, are you a Pro?(as in you paid the $15)
12:29 am
lawfully
no (i don't have photo)
12:30 am
lawfully
ragged, did you try kakuro? how did you like it?
12:30 am
lawfully
i was wondering if i should try that too
12:32 am
Penguin
Ah, it's starting to come together.
What is kakuro?
12:32 am
raggedyandy3478
haha, good call law, if i was actually awake i would have been able to make that connecting
12:32 am
lawfully
something like sudoku, I guess
12:32 am
raggedyandy3478
ya, cross sums, w/ some rules of sudoku added in
12:32 am
raggedyandy3478
addoku, thats the crazy one
12:33 am
lawfully
what's that? where can I try that?
12:33 am
raggedyandy3478
but law, to answer your q, yes it is fun, but it needs to become more popular so that someone will make a hard one(kakuro)
12:34 am
lawfully
so, you're saying it's fun but it's easy?
12:34 am
Penguin
Got it.
I'll make a note of addoku and kakuro to check out this weekend.
It's time for me to take a nap before a very early morning.
Good night.
12:34 am
raggedyandy3478
ya, if you can handle these, its a bit too easy
12:34 am
lawfully
good night and nice duty, Penguin
12:35 am
raggedyandy3478

raggedyandy3478
addoku(aka killer sudoku), it has yet to have an interactive one on the internet, but (http://www.su-doku.net/killer_sudoku.php ) is a site to show what addoku looks like
12:35 am
raggedyandy3478
its a cross between sudoku and kakuro
12:36 am
lawfully
I should probably try that now...
12:36 am

12:38 am
raggedyandy3478
haha, just think, the first day i miss, you get to take over me
12:39 am
raggedyandy3478
